Distributor Caps

A distributor cap is a cap which covers the distributor. Sounds simple, right? That's what we like to do - make things as easy for you as possible. If you want the full answer, the distributor routes high voltage from your cars engine ignition coil to the spark plugs, so they fire in the right order.

Spark plugs, coils and distributors are very precise pieces of engineering, with the firing order and timing being absolutely vital to having your engine running smoothly (or at all, in fact).

This can scare many motorists off, but it really doesn't need to be like that. At Halfords we ensure life is simple as possible for our customers.

We have engine experts in store ready and waiting to help find the right distributor cap for your car, with more knowledge and advice than you can shake a stick at. All you need to do is pop into your local store and see how we can help you too.
